You should test to see whether the array variables exist prior to using them, using the isset() function (you seem to have a typo a bit later, unless you also have an asset() function defined somewhere).

What do you see if you var_dump($_POST) at the start of your PHP code? I’m not big on Ajax code but I can’t see anything obvious wrong there.

ETA - reading elsewhere, it might be because you have the line

datatype: "JSON"

in there, which sends the data in a way that doesn’t instantly extract in the $_POST array. Remove that line and see what happens. Doesn’t it need a comma on the end anyway?

EATA - check for typos. As well as the one I mentioned in your PHP code, there’s another in the JS that deals with the return from the PHP code.
